A small boy wanders into view and notices the hat, wondering to whom it might belong. He finally mentions the word <a href="/wiki/The_Cat_in_the_Hat" title="The Cat in the Hat">Cat in the Hat</a>, who appears before the Boy and tells him he has been brought to life by the Boy's "<a href="/wiki/Oh,_the_Thinks_You_Can_Think!" title="Oh, the Thinks You Can Think!">Thinks</a>". The Cat urges this boy to Think up the "Seussian" world and characters around the boy and himself ("Oh, the Thinks You Can Think!"). The Cat then reveals to the Boy that he is about to tell a story about someone as imaginative as the Boy is. </p><p>To begin the story, the Cat encourages the Boy to think up the Jungle of Nool, where <a href="/wiki/Horton_the_Elephant" title="Horton the Elephant">Horton the Elephant</a> is bathing. Horton <a href="/wiki/Horton_Hears_a_Who!" title="Horton Hears a Who!">hears a strange noise coming from a nearby speck of dust</a>, and reasons that someone must be on it, calling out for help. He carefully places the speck on a soft clover and decides to guard it ("Horton Hears a Who"). But he is mocked mercilessly by the Sour Kangaroo and the other animals of the jungle, who do not believe him ("Biggest Blame Fool"). The only exceptions are Horton's bird neighbors, Gertrude McFuzz, who admires his compassion, and Mayzie LaBird, who is more concerned about herself ("Biggest Blame Fool Playoff"). </p><p>Horton soon discovers that the speck is actually a microscopic planet populated by creatures called Whos. The citizens of Who-ville introduce themselves and their <a href="/wiki/How_the_Grinch_Stole_Christmas!" title="How the Grinch Stole Christmas!">yearly Christmas pageant directed by their friend the Grinch</a>. They also reveal that in addition to being unable to control where the speck flies, they are on the brink of war and <a href="/wiki/The_Lorax" title="The Lorax">their entire population of Truffula Trees has been cut down</a> ("Here on Who"). The Whos thank Horton and ask for his protection, and he agrees to guard their planet. </p><p>At this point, the Cat pushes the Boy into the story; he becomes Jojo, the son of the Mayor of Who-ville and his wife. Jojo has been getting into trouble at school for having Thinks, so his parents order him to "take a bath and go to bed, and think some normal Thinks, instead".<sup id="cite_ref-SeussicalIP_3-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-SeussicalIP-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Jojo blames the Cat for getting him into trouble and tries to send him away. The Cat refuses and persuades Jojo to imagine the tub is <a href="/wiki/McElligot%27s_Pool" title="McElligot's Pool">McElligot's Pool</a> ("It's Possible"). Jojo inadvertently floods the house, leading the Mayor and his wife to contemplate what to do with their son ("How to Raise a Child"). When the Cat hands them a brochure, they decide to send Jojo to a military school run by General Genghis Khan Schmitz, who is preparing to go to war with <a href="/wiki/The_Butter_Battle_Book" title="The Butter Battle Book">those who eat their bread with the butter side down</a> ("The Military"). While there, Jojo meets Horton, and finds a mutual friend in him ("Alone in the Universe"). </p><p>Gertrude, meanwhile, has fallen in love with Horton, but is afraid he does not notice her because of her own tail, which consists of <a href="/wiki/Yertle_the_Turtle_and_Other_Stories" title="Yertle the Turtle and Other Stories">only "one droopy-droop feather"</a> ("The One Feather Tail of Miss Gertrude McFuzz"). At the advice of Mayzie, whose tail is enormous and dazzling, she consumes pills which make her tail grow new feathers. Gertrude is so excited that she overdoses, causing her tail to grow long and unwieldy ("Amazing Mayzie"/"Amazing Gertrude"). </p><p>Horton is ambushed by the Wickersham brothers, a gang of delinquent monkeys, who steal the clover and make off with it ("Monkey Around"). Horton gives chase until the Wickershams hand the clover to an eagle named Vlad Vladikoff, who drops it into a large patch of identical clovers ("Chasing the Whos"). Here, the Cat cuts briefly into the action to remind the audience <a href="/wiki/Did_I_Ever_Tell_You_How_Lucky_You_Are%3F" title="Did I Ever Tell You How Lucky You Are?">how lucky they are</a> to not be Horton ("How Lucky You Are"). Undeterred, Horton begins to look for the clover, hoping the Whos are still alive, when Gertrude catches up with him and tries to get him to notice her new tail. Horton is too busy, so she leaves to take more pills ("Notice Me, Horton"). </p><p>Horton is about to search his three millionth clover when he loses hope. Mayzie, sitting in a nearby tree, offers to help him forget about the Whos by <a href="/wiki/Horton_Hatches_the_Egg" title="Horton Hatches the Egg">hatching an egg</a> that she is too lazy to care for ("How Lucky You Are (Reprise)"). Horton reluctantly agrees, and Mayzie leaves for a vacation. Horton sits through months of harsh weather as he tries to decide between the egg and the Whos ("Horton Sits on the Egg") before he is captured by hunters, who take him away along with the entire tree. Gertrude tries to stop the hunters, but cannot fly due to her heavy tail. </p><p>The Cat closes the act with a reprise of "How Lucky You Are", and conducts the band during the intermission. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Act_II">Act II</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Seussical&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Act II"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Horton, still hatching the egg, is auctioned off to the traveling <a href="/wiki/If_I_Ran_the_Circus" title="If I Ran the Circus">Circus McGurkus</a> ("Egg, Nest, and Tree"/"Circus McGurkus"/"How Lucky You Are (Reprise)"). At one show in Palm Beach, he meets up with Mayzie, who insists that he keep the egg for himself before leaving ("Amayzing Horton"). Horton mourns the loss of the Whos and Jojo, but vows just as surely to protect the egg, as it, too, is alone without its mother ("Alone in the Universe (Reprise)"), and sings it a lullaby with Jojo about a magical place called <a href="/wiki/I_Had_Trouble_in_Getting_to_Solla_Sollew" title="I Had Trouble in Getting to Solla Sollew">Solla Sollew</a>. At the same time, the Mayor and his wife begin to miss Horton and Jojo, and wish for Solla Sollew, as well ("Solla Sollew"). </p><p>Jojo is with General Schmitz and his platoon as the Butter Battle commences ("Transition To Butter Battle"). Jojo deserts Schmitz, but sprints into a minefield and vanishes in an explosion. Schmitz assumes the worst and heads to Who-ville to tell Jojo's parents that their son has died ("A Message From The Front"). The Cat returns to perform a re-enactment of the dramatic scene. But in reality, Jojo has survived, but is lost with no idea of where to turn. The Cat appears to him with a band of <a href="/wiki/Hunches_in_Bunches" title="Hunches in Bunches">Hunches</a>, encouraging him to use his Thinks to find his way home ("Havin' a Hunch"). Jojo does so and happily reunites with his parents, who forgive him for his Thinks. </p><p>Gertrude sneaks into the circus to free Horton, explaining she plucked out all but one of her tail feathers to fly there, and confesses her love for him. She also reveals she has found his clover, delighting and relieving Horton to find the Whos alive and well ("All For You"). However, the Sour Kangaroo and the Wickersham brothers arrive to take Horton back to the jungle. </p><p>Icabod and Izzy journeyed alphabet letters from Aunt Annie's Alligator to Zizzer-Zazzer-Zuzz ("Dr. Seuss's ABC"). </p><p>In the jungle, Horton is put on trial for the crimes of "talking to a speck, disturbing the peace, and loitering... on an egg" <sup id="cite_ref-SeussicalIP_3-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-SeussicalIP-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> ("The People Versus Horton the Elephant"). Aided by Gertrude, Horton makes his best case, but Judge Yertle the Turtle finds him guilty. He orders Horton remanded to the "Nool Asylum for the Criminally Insane" and the clover destroyed in a kettle of hot "<a href="/wiki/Horton_and_the_Kwuggerbug_and_More_Lost_Stories" title="Horton and the Kwuggerbug and More Lost Stories">Beezle-Nut</a>" oil.<sup id="cite_ref-SeussicalIP_3-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-SeussicalIP-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Desperate, Horton encourages the Whos to make as much noise as possible to prove their existence, but the animals do not hear them. Jojo finally uses his Thinks to conjure a new word, "Yopp", which he shouts loudly enough to reach the animals' ears. Convinced at last, the animals repent and promise to help protect the Whos, and Horton is acquitted. Jojo is accepted by his parents and the rest of Who-ville as "Thinker Non-Stop" for saving their planet. Horton's egg hatches into a tiny flying "Elephant-Bird", amazing everyone, but dismaying Horton, who panics at the thought of flying progeny. Gertrude reassures him that they can raise the child together, and they agree to do so. </p><p>With the story finished, the Cat returns to close the show ("Finale - Oh, the Thinks You Can Think!"), then vanishes along with the scenery, leaving only his hat and Jojo, who is now the Boy again. The Boy picks the hat up, dons it, and says, "Seuss!" </p><p>During a <a href="/wiki/Curtain_call" title="Curtain call">curtain call</a>, the company performs a number based on <i><a

General Schmitz is replaced in "Oh, the Thinks You Can Think!" by the Wickersham Brothers. Songs cut include "Our Story Resumes", "The Circus McGurkus" and "The Circus on Tour". </p><p>An even shorter version of the show, <i>Seussical KIDS</i>, is also available from MTI.<sup id="cite_ref-20" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-20"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The 30-minute <i>KIDS</i> version is intended for a large cast of young performers.
